My parents and the Army both were never afraid to just make up some work…
I bought a new Mac Book Pro computer on Sunday. The Apple Store told me that they would configure it for me, transfer all my files from my old computer, and update a couple of programs for me, and that the new computer would be ready to pick up on Monday. It’s now Wednesday, and I still don’t have the computer. And the store just called me to tell me they couldn’t upgrade me from Aperture 2 to Aperture 3, because they need the serial number for my Aperture 2 install. So now I have to go home and find that old Aperture 2 box, and install that software upgrade myself when I go to the Apple Store tonight to pick up my new computer. Plus, I have to configure my new printer myself as well. WAAAH!!!
I can’t make SIRI pronounce our last name correctly. Bugs the crap out of me!
Bridezilla who went mental over the chance that Mickey and Minnie wouldn’t be able to make a brief appearance at her Disney wedding.
I finally got a weekend beta key for SW:ToR but I have a friend coming in to town for the weekend. #firstworldproblems
The city is talking about installing water meters in private homes again. It never passes, but every so often it comes up. Then I have to think about, what if I have to pay by the gallon (or however they charge)? instead a flat rate? I’ll never know how much my bill will be before it comes.
We lost power for two days when the Halloween nor’easter hit. We have a generator that runs a lot of the house, but we couldn’t use our hot tub or the dishwasher. Hard times.
Google chrome crashed last night and it wasn’t able to restore my tabs.
There are some clothes I really like but I can’t buy them because I’m boycotting the store. Note that I have no intention of contacting the store to tell them about this protest.
Similarly I took the day off to play Skyrim on Friday when it launches but remembered that I’d arranged for my fuck buddy to come over that day, and in the evening I’m going out with a friend to see a film so I won’t have that much time to play it.
Sucks that I have to have my gaming time taken away by sex with a hot guy and spending time with one of my best friends.
Wow. Water meters everywhere I’ve ever lived.
There’s a weird thing going on with my mp3 player, it shuffles a dozen songs if i scroll through and pick something I want to hear instead of waiting for it.
I don’t like when they wrap an ad around the sunday comics in the newspaper, i don’t know why it can’t be A separate ad or flier or thingy.
Firefox are being assholes and removing a feature not because people don’t use it (as they’ve yet to do the study) but because it’s too hard to program. And this really upset me. I’m stuck using Firefox 6 forever.
Pepsi wasn’t on sale this week so I had to buy Coke. :mad:
I had to close one of the half-dozen programs I have open at any given time at work and re-open it, and now my task bar is all out of order. (I’d worry that this was getting a bit OCD for me, but at least half my co-workers make a little “urf!” type noise when it happens to them, so I’m reassured. )
I currently have too many game of Through the Ages going on boardgaming-online.com at once, and as a result I got them mixed up and left myself vulnerable to a Raid!
My poor Alchemy labs…
Whenever I open a thread on the dope and scroll up to the top if the adverts haven’t loaded then the bring me back down to the last post and I have to scroll up all over again. Hmph.
These are really making me laugh. By mid afternoon at work the AC gets a little too much and I have to open the door to get some warm fresh air in.
My Flash crashed when watching a Youtube video, which caused me to miss the notification in one of my other tabs that I had virtual stuff I needed to claim for my virtual college campus, so it expired and I missed out on the virtual money it would have given me.
Step aside and let me show you how this is done.
My freezer is so full of cheap, conveniently-obtainable and easily-prepared food I barely have room for my $30 ice cube tray!
(I am giving it its trial run tonight. Look forward to the “Ask the woman who bought a $30 ice cube tray” thread soon.)
Any kind of complaint about computer problems. You are using magical alien technology from the future; when there are kids in Botswana dying of malaria at the very moment you realize Apple reversed the default scrolling direction in Mac OSX Lion and can easily be rectified by clicking a button… you’re “suffering” from a First World Problem.
